In this loose remake of the 1984 classic, Jaden Smith's character moves to Beijing with his mother, where he encounters a bully situation. Smith's character will be named Dre instead of Daniel, and take lessons from the decidedly un-Japanese martial arts master Mr. Han, played by Jackie Chan. Whereas Daniel Larusso and his mother only faced a regional move across the United States in the the first film, producer's say the script will integrate language barriers and an international collision of world views into the bully-victim-turned martial artist tale.
